Axelay

Developed and published by Konami. Released in 1992 for Snes was easily one my favourite childhood videogames. Countless of hours were spent on this hard as nails- shoot em up.

In case you don't know the game, here's pretty good full gameplay: https://youtu.be/0jFsGTuXdFs (video is not mine)

So, usually I don't do fan-art but this time I decided to do whole game. Overall goal of this project was to take existing IP, preferably older one and imagine how it would look in
a todays era. Workflow wise I wanted to go full concept desing, cutting all the possible corners and just focus on getting images out fast. Average time spent per image was 1-3 evenings each.

Everything modeled in 3dsmax, zbrush and moi3d. All renders in corona and overpainting in photoshop.

Still waiting for axelay 2 :)
